It is following the increase in the population of the city of Lubumbashi on the one hand and the intensification of semi-industrial activity on the other hand that we deemed it appropriate to undertake a study on the estimation of the energy demand of the annex commune of the city of Lubumbashi. The choice of the annex commune was motivated by the fact that it is the belt of the city of Lubumbashi and is currently undergoing spectacular development in infrastructure and will therefore need a significant demand for electrical energy. The city of Lubumbashi is made up of seven municipalities which are: Lubumbashi, Kamalondo, Kenya, Katuba, Kampemba, Ruashi and the Annex commune. The growth rate over the last ten years of sampling is estimated at 42% and clearly shows that there is a need to know the demand trend curve in order to predict future energy needs. The objective of this communication will then be to estimate the energy demand of the Annex municipality. To achieve our objective, we started by mapping the said municipality by listing the different loads (houses, schools, churches, semi-industrial sector, etc.), so to assess future energy demand, we used the Bottom-up model.

Abstract
It is following the increase in the population of the city of Lubumbashi on the one hand and the intensification of semi-industrial activity on the other hand that we deemed it appropriate to undertake a study on the estimation of the energy demand of the annex commune of the city of Lubumbashi. The choice of the annex commune was motivated by the fact that it is the belt of the city of Lubumbashi and is currently undergoing spectacular development in infrastructure and will therefore need a significant demand for electrical energy. The city of Lubumbashi is made up of seven municipalities which are: Lubumbashi, Kamalondo, Kenya, Katuba, Kampemba, Ruashi and the Annex commune. The growth rate over the last ten years of sampling is estimated at 42% and clearly shows that there is a need to know the demand trend curve in order to predict future energy needs. The objective of this communication will then be to estimate the energy demand of the Annex municipality. To achieve our objective, we started by mapping the said municipality by listing the different loads (houses, schools, churches, semi-industrial sector, etc.), so to assess future energy demand, we used the Bottom-up model.

Abstract: (french)
C’est suite à l’accroissement de la population de la ville de Lubumbashi d’une part et à l’intensification de l’activité semi industrielle d’autre part que nous avons jugé bon d’entreprendre une étude sur l’estimation de la demande énergétique de la commune annexe de la ville de Lubumbashi. Le choix de la commune annexe a été motivé par le fait qu’elle est la ceinture de la ville de Lubumbashi et subit à ce jour un développement spectaculaire en infrastructure et donc aura besoin d’une importante demande en énergie électrique. La ville de Lubumbashi est composée de sept communes qui sont: Lubumbashi, Kamalondo, Kenya, Katuba, Kampemba, Ruashi et la commune Annexe. Le taux de croissance sur les dix dernières années d’échantillonnage est évalué à 42% et montre clairement qu’il y a nécessité de connaitre la courbe de tendance de la demande afin de prédire le besoin énergétique futur. L’objectif de cette communication sera alors d’estimer la demande énergétique de la commune Annexe. Pour arriver à notre objectif, nous avons commencé par cartographier ladite commune en répertoriant les différentes charges (maisons, écoles, églises, secteur semi-industriel,...), ainsi pour évaluer la demande énergétique future, nous avons eu recours au modèle Bottom-up.
